The Application of Scanning Acoustic Microscope in New Energy Vehicle IGBT Modules As core power devices in fields such as new energy vehicles and photovoltaic inverters, IGBT modules contain multiple complex layers (such as chips, solder layers, DBC ceramic substrates, etc.). Any minor packaging defects (such as voids in the solder layer, cracks, delamination, poor soldering, etc.) can lead to inadequate heat dissipation and concentrated thermal stress, ultimately resulting in module failure. For example, delamination defects between the IGBT chip and the heat sink baseplate may create t ...Read More.
Failure Analysis of Tesla's Thermal Management System In the automotive industry, an efficient thermal management system is crucial for the performance and lifespan of electric vehicles. Taking the Tesla Model Y as an example, it is equipped with an advanced thermal management system, which includes a large radiator located at the front of the vehicle. This radiator effectively disperses heat generated by the vehicle from the center to the sides, helping to maintain the vehicle's temperature balance. As part of a closed-loop cooling system, the radiator trans ...Read More.
